The SmartNav 4 is the lastest edition of the best hands-free mouse on the market.The SmartNav 4 is a hands-free input device for those with special needs who are unable to use other ergonomic devices, or for those who have extreme cases of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Repetitive Strain Injuries, or other special needs. The SmartNav 4 allows the user to control the cursor with suble movements of the head. Especially in combination with accessories such as foot switches (sold separately) the SmartNav 4 gives the user complete control of the workstation without the risk of overloading any area of the body. The workload can be evenly distributed across the strongest parts of the body.
The SmartNav 4: EG Model is an ergonomic alternative to conventional mice that allows people suffering from extreme cases of Carpel Tunnel Syndrome and Repetitive Strain Injuries to navigate a computer quickly and easily. This model has a Hot Keys feature to designate keys to designate a key or keys to perform mouse functions such as left and right clicking, scrolling etc. It also includes optional hand and footswitch input.
The SmartNav 4: AT Model is an assistive technology device that enables completely hands-free operation of the computer. This model provides a virtual keyboard, dwell click functionality, and optional hand and footswitch input. This AT unit is designed for people with disabilities such as ALS and quadriplegia. | Ergonomic Benefits |

Wrist relief - The SmartNav 4 eliminates the need for a hand-held mouse, thus relieving your wrist of the overuse that contributes to conditions such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Tendonitis, Repetitive Strain Injury, and other wrist strain related problems.
Minimal movement for cursor movement - The movement required to operate the SmartNav 4 is minimal when compared to hand-held mice or even touchpads: a quarter-inch movement of the head
is sufficient to move the cursor across the entire monitor screen. Consequently, the heavy burden on your wrist isn't simply transferred to another
part of your body to cause similar problems, but is moved to a part of your body -the head- where the head's natural movement is utilized without stressing
your neck muscles. After all, it makes sense to move your head in the direction of the cursor.
Many options for generating mouse clicks - EG Model - Two switch input jacks allow you to use your choice of switches for left and right clicking, or any other device plugged into the computer e.g. other mice, etc.
AT Model - In addition to the switch input jacks, dwell click software allows you to generate any type of click simply by pausing on a target for a configurable length of time.
